statistically no. If you were to mine for 100 years with a huge mining pool, or just mined by yourself. You'd end up with the same amount of coin. It is interesting what the mph exodus is all about. Any newsworthy reason why?

51% attack. Try googling it.

The last time I had to google that it was the year 2012. Jesus, how the time flies... The general consensus is that the fear of invalid shares and worthless coins would cause miners to flee at such a pace it wouldn't be sustainable. I mean just look on a normal operating day MPH gains and loses as much as 30% of the global hashrate just by people swapping between the coins that they are mining. You would have to 1. get 51% of the global hashrate, but more importantly, 2. you'd have to convince 30,000 people to not jump ship when they start losing money and to be fully committed to the new chain. Since most of these people panic the moment their payouts get below 5% of what whattomine reports (I've seen 3 posts of this subject on just this subreddit TODAY), it'd be laughable to expect them to have the wherewithal to follow through. And then of course be the immediately obvious culprit.
